ABSTRACT
Objective To probe MRI diagnostic characteristics of moyamoya disease(MMD). Methods Both MRI and MRA findings in 17 cases, aged 10~49 years, with MMD were analyzed retrospectively. Axial T_1WI and T_2WI were performed for MRI, while 3D TOF was used for MRA.Gd-DTPA enhanced MRA and T_1WI were carried out in 2 and 4 patients respectively.FLAIR was performed in 5 cases.Results ( 1 ) Multiple focal infarction was noted in 5 cases , old hemorrhage in 4 cases, dilatation of unilateral ventricle with history of ventricle hemorrhage was displayed in 2 cases;(2)MRI showed signal void of the following vessels as well as other lesions① internal carotid artery (ICA) bifurcation, anterior cerebral artery (ACA), middle cerebral artery (MCA) and posterior cerebral artery (PCA) (17/17);②collateral circulation from the skull base, PCA and ECA were demonstrated well in combination with MRA,T_1WI and T_2WI (17/17);③“Ivy sign” or leptomeningeal high signal intensity could be demonstrated on contrast-enhanced T_1WI or FLAIR images(2/17). Conclusion MRI findings can suggest the diagnosis of the MMD, and definite diagnosis can be usually made if combined with MRA.
